From Nigeria to Morocco: The Making of No U-Turn

We're joined by Ike Nnaebue, a celebrated filmmaker and cultural entrepreneur based in Nigeria. We discuss his documentary No U-Turn, a personal journey through a popular migration route from Lagos, Nigeria to Tangier, Morocco with the aims of reaching European shores. Together, we explore the themes of hope and shame, challenges faced — and the notion that in order for Africa to make space for African dreams, European migration policy needs a reckoning with history.
